Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for getting access to a digital mobile phone.
- a PIN Personal Identification
- SIM Subscriber Identification Module
- a user does not like to have the same code for his or her mobile phone as used f.e. for credit cards, alarms or other secured systems. This is due to the fact that, if an unauthorized person sees the code being entered, he or she will have access to every secured system.
- Fig. 3 shows a flowchart for illustrating the usual procedure for getting access to a GSM mobile phone.
- a description of the current function of the PIN code may be found in GSM specification 11.11 (6.1.0). Section 8.9 specifically contains the procedure for entering the PIN code.
- step S10 the user is asked to enter his or her PIN code by showing a corresponding display message. Then, the user pushes four keys in order to enter the code.
- step S20 the PIN code is sent to the SIM card, f.e. by pressing the OK button.
- step S30 the entered PIN code is compared to a corresponding code stored in the SIM card. If both codes match, access is confirmed. If there is a mismatch, in step S40 it is determined, if the number of tries equals a predetermined number, f.e. 3. If this is the case, the access is denied and the user is asked to enter his or her PUK code. If the number of tries is less than the predetermined number in step S40, the user is allowed to go back to step S10 and asked again to enter his or her correct PIN code.
- the present invention provides a method and apparatus for getting access to a digital mobile phone according to claim 1 and 5, respectively.
- a particular advantage is that no more new code has to be remembered by the user. Instead of keying in a PIN code, the user simply enters his or her signature.
- the principal idea of the present invention is to apply the hand written signature recognition technique for getting access to a digital mobile phone.
- signature is not restricted to the personal name, but can be any hand written text and/or number string.
- the signature recognition could advantageously be used for enabling other secure parts of the device, i.e. calendar, email, and and general personal information or settings.
- a signature recognition means having a stored reference signature; an entering means for entering a signature; a comparing means for comparing the entered signature and the stored reference signature; and an access means for confirming the access, if there is a match, and for denying the access, if there is a mismatch.
- a conversion means for converting the entered signature in a PIN code by a conversion means and sending the PIN code to the SIM card; and a comparison means for comparing the converted PIN code with a reference code stored in the SIM card are provided.
- said conversion means includes a touch screen.
- the procedure can be implemented in a mobile device which already has a touch screen, using a software approach.
- said touch screen has a plurality of fields each being associated with a part of the signature.
- the fields are automatically generatable, after the signature has been entered.
- a conversion means for converting each matched field to a respective digit of a PIN code; and an entering means for entering said PIN code to a SIM card are provided.
- a detecting means for detecting a pressure pattern of the entered signature; and a comparison means for comparing the detected pressure pattern of the entered signature and a stored reference pressure pattern are provided.
- Fig. 1 shows a flowchart for illustrating the procedure for getting access to a GSM mobile phone according to an embodiment of the invention.
- step S100 the user is asked to enter his or her signature by showing a corresponding display message. Then, the user writes the signature on a touch screen of the mobile phone, either with his finger or by means of a pencil.
- step S200 it is checked if the signature is correct. This may be done by a usual pattern comparison technique.
- step S300 it is determined, if the number of tries equals a predetermined number, f.e. 3. If the number of tries is less than the predetermined number in step S300, the user is allowed to go back to step S100 and asked again to enter his or her correct signature. If the number of tries equals the prdetermined number, the procedure proceeds to step S10 ff. explained above.
- step S200 If the signature is correct in step S200, it is internally converted to a PIN code and the PIN code is sent to the SIM card.
- the conversion may be obtained by reading specific memory locations or by a more sophisticated conversion alogorithm.
- step S500 the entered PIN code is compared to a corresponding code stored in the SIM card. If both codes match, access is confirmed. If there is a mismatch, the procedure proceeds to step S10 ff. explained above.
- Fig. 2 is a schematic illustration for explaining an embodiment of the signature recognition means.
- the signature entered by the user on a touch screen is split into 4 or 8 or more squares, here SQ1-SQ4, which graphical contents represent a 1-digit value, respectively, such that all squares in combination represent the four-digit code, here ,,7159", if the entered signature corresponds to a stored reference signature.
- Either a fixed frame with the squares SQ1-SQ4 may be provided, or the frame can be automatically formed on the screen after the signature has been entered anywhere on the screen.
- the latter solution has the advantage that the recognition is adaptable to the position and the magnitude of the signature.
- the individual squares can also contain written numbers instead of a part of a signature.
- a technique using pressure as well as pattern and/or position can be chosen for the signature recognition means, f.e. the touch screen. This technique enables to detect pressure points which is unique for signatures.
- the access procedure can be more complex with additional queries, such as birth date, additional codes etc.
